Staying Flexible


Preparing to move east soon. The tricky part of cruising is moving locations. Weather is the strongest determiner. We have until the end of July to check out of Honduras, but will we have a good weather window to travel to Guatemala at that time?  We have made up a flexible plan to start moving east over to Guanaja then to head back to Roatan to check out and head to The Rio Dulce in Guatemala by the end of July. We decided to leave from Roatan because of the angle it puts us when sailing. That is also a huge factore in cruising. 

We wanted to head back to French Harbor this week but the trade winds are up so we will leave when they calm down some. The wave intervals are more frequent in this area when wind are higher which causes a rougher sail. 

We have been snorkeling and hanging at local places. We also met our neighbor boat for dinner. I always get a little sad to leave the area because the locals here in Honduras are so friendly and welcoming. I am looking forward to seeing the folks on the east end. 

Here are a few pics

These prove I am the hotter one and Steve is the cooler one. Lol. 


Haha they crack me up. 

These are of a place called C Level in west end that we hang out at. 



This is what I look like during the day. Crochet, crochet. 


Hope everyone has a great week
